Name: Eiji "Orochi"
Age: 20
Birthdate: Unknown
Nationality/Cultural Group: Japanese Human?
Height: 6"0'
Weight: 195lbs
Gender: Male
Affiliations: None.
Appearance:Eiji makes an effort no effort to dress himself. Wearing the same old winter coat and long sleeved shirts until they wear themselves to rags. Underneath he regularly wears bandages throughout his entire body. His long black hair stays greasy and unbrushed as all the travelling rarely lends him the chance to wash his hair that stays concealed under a straw hat. His brown eyes are dull and lifeless much like his taste in clothing. His body is littered from scars from jobs gone difficult. Though he does wear a Extremely large laceration scar from his shoulder down to his hip. He has had this since he could remember.
Belongings: One Boot knife, One low quality Katana, backpack with worn camping supplies, and a Jade ring.
Personality: Eiji is a sly ronin saying whatever he needs to tell you so he can earn an opportunity to get a knife in your back, a hand in your purse, or a lapse in focus for an attack, a destitute punk through when he isnt backstabbing he is fighting to survive. Be it with his words or his fists. A unkind world has made him in turn jaded in spirit. Slow to trust anyone that isnt his father, but remains curious enough engage people in meaningless conversation. Untrusting of authority be it divine or governmental. He wanders from place to place looking for pockets to pick and meals to be eaten, he is a free spirit at heart. Has a soft spot for the elderly and not without a playful side, though this is mostly for his own amusement as he has a bad habit to play the fool
Character Strengths: Accomplished swordfighter. Trained from a young age to take on jobs no one else would do has aided his ability to fight in close quarters with edged weapons.
Adept rouge: From climbing trees and pipes alike to cracking into locks His father utilized Eiji's small frame and hands from a young age. As a result he excels at getting into places he shouldn't be, and staying out of sight.
Desensitized: His upbringing has hardened his heart and mind. Letting him keep it cool in unsalvageable situations
Character Flaws:
Selfish nature: Eiji cares about his well being first and foremost. Afterall who is gonna look after you but you?
Untrustworthy: Maybe its an aura or maybe its the way hes stabbed so many others in the back, but the first thing you think when you see this ugly mug is "snake"
Withdrawn: Aloof and uncaring its hard to get genuine emotion out of him.
Old wound: The wound on his chest has a tendency to flair up and cause him extreme pain. Any medicine or magic he has tried thus far has had little to no effect on its intensity
Backstory: Found in the wild as a newborn Eiji doesn't know where he came from and that doesn't bother him at all. Ever since he can remember he has been traveling the country with his father Renjiro. Going town to town picking up odd jobs and getting into trouble. He has never had any formal schooling to speak of other than the odd lesson from his father. Its a miracle he can even read. From a young age he has manifested powers that his father was quick to capitalize on. This was not without consequence, as even his father knew something was off about this kid. People were weary of him even as a toddler. The odd Aura the child seemed to produce was worrying. However for reasons unknown to Eiji Renjiro decided to keep him around and put him to work as soon as he was old enough to hold a weapon. The word was hard, and dangerous, but this time he would not have a son to grow up weak. Staying at the fringes of society for work then slinking back into the shadows Renjiro never took his new son to get tested when he came of age. What the state didn't know wouldn't hurt them. The years went by and his boy grew into a man. Still to this day they travel together.
Family, Friends Etc: Renjiro Hirose (56) A well traveled sword saint and ronin. Beach blonde hair thats slowly going grey he is Eiji's father and mentor and travelling partner. Teaching his son all he knows so he can lead a life a ronin. As treacherous as it may be it is a life of freedom.
Daisuke (98) a friend of renjiro's A tanuki merchant, Head of the Kyoto Merchants guild. Runs his operations out of a large Inn "Fate's Fork" Eiji was often dropped of there while Renjiro worked on jobs too dangerous for a kid or a teenager. Eiji sees him as his grandfather.
Powers: The following section is where you construct your powers. The setup below is a suggestion and a higher end cap. Be aware that Passives are considered a rank lower in effect strength with the trade off of being sustained and always on unless suppressed.
Power Theme: Inhuman outcast
Rank C Ability:Abhuman anatomy: Eiji was always stronger, and faster than he was meant to be even as a child. Its why he was never allowed to play with the other kids. When activated Eiji's body becomes stronger, allowing him to lift two times his body weight. His running speed and grip are also augmented.
Allowing him to one hand grip his katana and put him on par with a marathon runner. Overuse causes immense fatigue (2 posts- 20 minutes.) Using past this point will lead to his muscles tearing themselves apart.
Rank B Ability:Die another day: When activated Eiji's body begins to rebuild itself with terrifying speed. Cuts and gunshot wounds seal up in a matter of a dozen seconds, Major organ and bones grow back within thirty seconds, can even be used to reattach lost limbs. Overuse in a short period of time causes his healing to give demising returns, leading to hair and tooth loss. Skin will start to build leprosy while the major organs are repaired again and again.
Dead tissue will be broken down to a acidic bile which will be expelled either through the mouth or through the skin. He has to focus inwards on this ability to use it, so he cannot attack and heal at the same time. This also has the ill effect of making his natural sweat mildly acidic.
Rank C Passive: Oddity Aura. Something just isn't right with him. People can sense it and tell something is wrong and want to avert their eyes, Yokai can sense sense it and are Curious, but from a distance. Eiji exudes a aura of wrongness. Like he is a anomaly wherever he goes. Holy affiliated people and yokai will perceive him as demonic and demonic entities will perceive him as holy.
